Hi all,

Just wondering, I know the universal doesn't have a capable graphics chip, does anybody know whats a good touchflo interface, fast without so much lag, stable, lightweight?

I tried throttle launcher a while back, to resource intensive, super slow and buggy. Anyone got it right with the new one?

The best solution i guess is legendary SPB Mobile Shell 3. I guess that could work smoothly on the uni, but what's the memory (RAM) footprint like, since many of us are using the 64mb uni? :D

I've also seen alot of talk of Manilla or is it Touchflo 2d, so many forums, though mostly relating to newer phones.

Anyone who has found a great touchflo like interface for uni let us know. At the moment my today screen is all about quick access with SPB Pocket Plus Today and HTC Home VGA integrated to the Home page for that old touchflo look of the old original Touch.

Hello,

Can anyone help me arabizing my O2 xda atom life? I got it from ebay, so it came with an english windows mobile 5. I upgraded to wm6, available on the seeo2 site, and I chose the arabic version, but this did not help, guess that version was only an upgrade version.

I don't want an arabic interface. I just wanna read arabic sms, contact names...etc, plus arabic support for arabic software (quran and so on).

Of course, free is always better! But I am disperate to do it, whatever it costs..

Waiting for your replies.

Hi,

If you upgrade your AtomLife with the Arabic Extended ROM you should get the Arabic ROM, just need to install the Arabization Software by choosing the O2 Installer and choose the needed programs from the list.

If this is not the case, and you didn't find the Arabizatioin software in the list, Download the Arabization Software from

Hi

is someone able to run smoothly skype 2.4 on Excalibur with Kavana over WAPed WiFi?

Is that one less demanding on resources while phoning with a skype account than skype itself, or are you just telling me to phone over a SIP account instead?

[Advantage X7510 General] dieterpapa:
If your X7510 is already CID unlocked simply download one of Michys ROMs and install it.

If it is not unlocked, use cmonex way to change SPL, see "sticky" threads.

[Advantage X7510 General] Dr. RAMI:
Thank you for reply but; What do you mean by ......

1- CID LOCK OR UNLOCK?

2- What are the steps for doing what did you suggest?

3- Where I can find the tow ROMs that you mentioned?

First: YOU DON'T NEED TO SHOUT AROUND :D I can do louder :D:D

2nd: For unlocking: did you have a look into the Wiki ?

4th: the ROMS are from Michyprima, did you find them ?

When done the steps above you may come back

First I'm sorry for misunderstanding, but actually I have vision problem with the small font,so forgive me for that.

2- My knowledge in this field is almost zero; so I need step by step gaudiness.

3- I'll try to find what did you described later.

Last, thank you again and have a nice time.
[Advantage X7510 General] dieterpapa:
Dear dottore,,the community will forgive you :D

But - to give you any step by step advise, we need to know whether your device is already unlocked or not !

It may even help to know whether you have a branded device or bought it directly from HTC.

Ok sorry to jump the thread, but since i have a similar thing going on ( German to English), i try to straight this out..

My Phone is unlocked, not any Branding, nothing, just in German ( got it as a gift from a friend)

So i gonna take one of this Rom´s ( for example the new Win 6.5 ), follow the instructions as seen at several Threads and that´s it?

That would be almost to easy?!

Zonga
[Advantage X7510 General] NeilM:
You must make sure it is CID unlocked- not just SIM unlocked.

If in doubt, follow the instructions for installing HardSPL in the sticky thread at the top of this forum.

Once thats done, you can then install any ROM you want :) Make sure it is specifiucally for the X7510 though. X7500 ROMs won't work.

Don't bother with the WM6.5 ROMs yet- they simply don't work well enough for everyday use, but the WM6.1 ROMs are good.
[Advantage X7510 General] ZongaBr:
Ok, Thanks for the Information..

Gonna read a bit more, and will also figure our what that

CID lock is about :rolleyes:

I just have to find the time to flash the Phone and start reading .
[Advantage X7510 General] Tadeusz:
ZongaBr, please, the opposite. First read and then flash your device. Other way you are gonna end up with a brick in your hand. But you already know it.

CID lock is a feature of SPL imposed by HTC and other phone producers, to make sure that the device produced for eg. for T-Mobile, with a specific ROM will not accept any other ROM made for, let's say O2. If your device is still CID locked and you try to flash it with any rom not aimed for this device, then you can have a brick after that or in best, it just refuses to be flashed, depending how advanced the flasher is.

But if you use this CID unlock procedure made by cmonx (from first sticky here) you will prepare your device to any ROM you wish providing that it is for X7510.
[Advantage X7510 General] ZongaBr:
You can be sure i am going to read as much as i can ,and not before i understand how to do it the right way i will not try to do anything stupid!

Just thought i would say hello to my second phone forum on xda...Hello :)

I currently have a kaiser/tytn2,i am going to receive my touch 3g tomorrow on orange and there was a few questions i would hope you will help me with.

1: What are the pros of switching to a custom rom apart from getting rid of the bloatware from the stock rom and how much more memory will i get on average from a custom rom?

2:Whats the on screen keyboard like to use and can you recommend a good alternative (I bite my nails so just have the pads to type with which can be problematic) and i know just dont bite them :)

3: What is the best screen protector to use for the screen as it is flush with the housing which i have not got on my kaiser?

4:I do like to have games on my phone to play with when i am bored can anyone recommend any good ones that i can play,especially as i now dont have a keyboard or softkeys.

5: Is there any reported camera problems with this phone as the one on my kaiser was absoloute rubbish and i am hoping this one although it does not have auto focus will not have the same problems as the kaiser with the drivers.

Thanks djp76 :)

If you don't expect to much of it...you won't be disappointed.

BTW...i'm very happy with this phone, it's thin and powerfull at the same time, for me it has everything i need and compared to the old wizard i have it's a big improvement.

[Touch 3G General] djp76:
Thanks for the heads up Nirak,because of the camera on the kaiser i dont use it that much so not too much of an issue for me although it's nice to know when you need it it's there if you know what i mean.

Whats the response time like from when you press the button to it actually taking the picture because even with advanced config tweaks on the kaiser it was still 2-3 seconds before it took the picture.

I like the fact that its HALF the weight of the kaiser and the flush screen is better looking i think.
[Touch 3G General] Nirak:
Yep, the response time is slow, i guess it's about 1-2 seconds after you press the button.

Didn't know you could tweak that with advanced config; gonna give it a try
[Touch 3G General] djp76:
Got it!

Well i have now been playing around with my T3G for about 5 hours and i must say that i am very impressed with it so far.

The orange bloatware takes a bit of getting used to but it was a good idea of them to cook in M2D aswell,not too sure about the unique manager yet though seems a bit of a pain in the arse sometimes.

The camera seems ok for what i want it for,it's alot smaller than i thought was expecting it to be somewhere around the size of a Spv m600 (but not as small as it is!),i dont mind the keybaord now i have found the one i like (Compact Qwerty) but may change to fingerboard but yet to test it.

I very much like the look of it aswell, love the size, love the flush screen but i want you guys out there to recommend the best screen protector,has there been a vote on any here on the forums?

I think numbers speak louder than just users saying i got brand X and it's been ok for me,just an idea.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Antboy:
Maybe an app already exists that does this, but searching hasn't revealed anything, so...

It's easy enough to add new folders to to the WM 6.5 Start Menu by creating them in

\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\

From there, one can copy/move individual .lnk files into a folder so that everything of a type would be there.

Is there a preferably finger friendly app that will allow us to create folders then sort .lnk files easily? Right now it can be done using Total Commander, but it seems quite laborious, especially if one is in the habit of installing new ROMs every couple of weeks.

An added bonus would be something that let us pick icons for these folders. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Aegishua:
HComber is a WM6.5 app that does this. It allows users to change icons for different shortcuts/folders but doesn't allow the rearranging of shortcuts.

If you want to change the icon folder just place a .lnk to the icon/dll. For Example you have a icon in a dll called shine2.dll in your windows folder you would use this for icon number 18:

1#Shine2.dll,-18

Just use notepad to edit lnk files. Theres a tutorial on the forum somewhere if you want more information.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] langers1:
I know exactly how you feel Grey, but I thought sod it, best bet (someone correct me if i am wrong) hold down the camera key and hold in the soft reset button. If it comes up with the tricolour screen and it says something like SPL-1.0.OliPof. If that comes up the scary bit has been done and someones already put HardSPL on the phone. Chances are they have if you already have a custom ROM on it.

Now the hard bit will be is what ROM to put on it. Just read how to flash it but the easiest way is to do it from the SD card, and always flash the HTC stock ROM between custom ROMS, it helps u avoid any problems.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] sdbe:
When I made the switch from the AT&T Tilt to the Fuze in December the one thing that I missed was a working GPS. I travel a lot and with the Tilt I could mount the phone in my rental car and by the time I was out of the lot everything was working. I never even thought about it.

As many of you know by now the Fuze GPS is, shall we say, challenged. Some people have worse results than others. Mine would usually get a fix but it took a while, and the lag was also an issue.

I tried various fixes that I found here and none of them did any good, they have all been removed now. I finally decided to bite the bullet and install the 1.12.25.19 radio that some people were raving about. I noticed very little, if any, improvement.

Then I tried the 1.14.25.05 radio. That was a big improvement. It could get a fix in places that even my Tilt couldn't and it got it quickly. I tried it in the car using Tomtom and was surprised that the lag was almost gone. I never looked at the Tilt this closely, it just worked, but it seems that now the Fuze is working as well as the Tilt.

I have seen reports here saying that 1.14.25.05 isn't as good as some others, but it is worth a try if you are already experimenting with radios.

For the record, I have the stock rom without bloat and started with the 1.02.25.32 radio. And I didn't change the rilphone.dll.

Now if we could just get the Tilt buttons onto the Fuze this device would be perfect.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] vudu:
What part of the US are you in? I'm in Southern California, have the .19 radio and GPS fix is under 10sec when using Google Maps. However, it didn't improve my phone reception very much (my wife's iphone gets 1-2 bars more than I do). Curious to know whether it improved your phone reception at all?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] sdbe:
I am in Central Florida where we have good reception almost everywhere. I didn't notice any difference among all three radios that I tried, reception was always the same, which was good.

One thing that I noticed about the 1.12.25.19 radio was that the gps was inaccurate. When I used google maps with my Tilt I could see what room in the house I was in. With the original radio, 1.02.25.32, it was almost as good, at least I could see that I was in the house. The 1.12.25.19 radio would sometimes put me 1/4 mile away from where I actually was. This even happened when I was outdoors. Tomtom seemed to be able to compensate for the errors but with Tomtom it would get 'lost' occasionally. 1.12.25.19 was my least favorite radio. The 1.14.25.05 radio is quick and accurate at least for me.

The 1.14.25.05 doesn't require anything to get an accurate fix. I used to have to use gpstest or some other program to 'prime' the gps. Now I don't have to worry about it. I just turn it on and a few seconds later it is working.

Sorry, I tried it and it didn't do a thing for me with either of the first two radios that I tried. So I guess you could say that I proved that it doesn't work.

The strange thing about this problem is that what works for some doesn't for others.

For me the 1.14.25.05 radio made the gps work like it should have in the beginning. None of the other fixes had any affect. Also note that I used the original rilphone whereas others tried changing theirs. That may be why I had better luck.

At this point I have to say that the Fuze has a very good gps with little or no lag. That is not something that I would have said a few weeks ago. Everything on my phone is original except the newer radio. Maybe HTC discovered this but didn't advertise it.

Im using the stock fuze rom 5.08.502.1 with radio 1.12.25.19. If your looking to speed up the gps lock and have a similar setup, I would recommend using the gps hack first, before flashing a different radio, its much safer, Duces!

The GPS gets lock in about...5-15 MINUTES! and only outdoors.
